when did Imageepoch become the voice of JRPGs all of a sudden D: A stupid video in the Internet can give you the right to say what ever you want, either way, I doubt that this guys can make a profitable game at this point. But well, who knows.

Considered for your amusement, an ordinary drinking straw. But when one hampster attempts to use the straw to take a drink, he will discover that what goes into the straw from either side never comes out. He is doomed to drown in the perverbial beverage that is... the Twilight Zone.

I been reading the impressions on GAF about this game, and guess what... it seems that this game has more story than the Xeno games. GhaleonQ: So, would you say this has more or less RPG stuff than Sigma Harmonics?Bebpo: Never got around to playing that so I can't compare. The most story heavy rpgs I've played have been Xenogears/Xenosaga, and what I've played of Sora no Kiseki series so far. RH definitely has more story than either so far. I'm still really early though. Haven't played it since Monday. Been focusing on Solatorobo so I can get back to RH.Pinko Marx: More story than Xenogears/Saga!?Bebpo: I'm not talking about overall story though, just the ratio to the gameplay. Like I said the first 4 hours was about 3 1/2 hours of watching scenes and 30 mins of gameplay. 1 mini-dungeon and maybe a dozen battles and 2 bosses so far.Pinko Marx: Well hopefully the story and dialogue are up to par to carry the game.Impressions of the game by Sinople (GAF Member): I've played around 10 hours now and can confirm the game is definitely very good.
The story is captivating enough to make you want know what will happen next. You basically alternate between two time-lines created from one important decision you make at the beginning of the game. It's interesting to see how events happen drastically differently between the two. My only reserve is that the two time-lines sometimes influence each other when they should not.
As for the battle system, it's really fun. There are lots of skills that make it more and more engaging as you gain level, like aoe, traps and limits of a sort.
There is also a strong focus on gaining ability to open new paths or discover treasures in areas you already visited, like an action-adventure game a la Zelda.
J-Gaf seems to be more interested in Tactics Ogre and Golden Sun but I can safely recommend this one. Sales are desperately low but I really hope word of mouth will give it the legs it deserve, as reviews are pretty positive.Well, the game seems interesting. But it appears that the game didn't sold well in Japan thanks to God Eater Burst and Tactics Ogre, a shame. Here's the link to the thread: Radiant Historia import impressions.
